PTA Meeting Monday, August 29

PTAReminderGraphicWe’re back in the swing of the new school year, and your PTA would like to welcome you to the first PTA meeting of the year on Monday, August 29 from 6 to 7:30 P.M. Based upon popular vote, we are trying something new. Instead of monthly meetings, we will only host 4 PTA meetings this year, but they will each run for one and a half hours. This longer time frame will allow for a 30 minute “deep dive” into a special topic. As always, babysitting will be available in the gym and this month, we will have free pizza for everyone!

 

Who: All Harrison families are welcome
Where: Harrison Library
When: 6:00 – 7:30 pm, Monday, August 29, 2016
Special Topic: Refugee Community Awareness
Special Guests: Alana Schriver, Refugee Specialist for OPS and Laura Bowden, ESL Para for Harrison Elementary
Babysitting is Available in the gym and we request a donation for our sitters
Special Note: We will have free PIZZA available at this meeting!

PTA membership packets should have arrived home last week. For your convenience, we’ve also made most of the forms fillable PDFs so you can simply click on the response area and start typing. You will need to either save the PDFs and email them to us or print the completed forms and return them to school by September 9th. Please note: You DO NOT have to be a PTA member to be included in the online directory but you DO have to have a valid email address to access the information.

Below are the links for all information included in the packets:

Additionally, we’ve included the OPS District Volunteer form as a fillable PDF as well.

We hope you are all off to a great start this week!
